Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

I went to this castle with my family. I visited this castle on the 5th of March. I was shocked to find out that half of the castle is lived in by students who go to the Durham university. So you have to buy tickets to be taken on the tour. Our tour guide was lovely. However it is bit of shame feeling rushed through the castle and I felt we couldn’t see much of the castle. However what we did get to see, was pretty awesome!

Thank you very much for reviewing your experience at Durham Castle! The Castle as you say is lived in by the students so areas are not accessible due to its nature as a college/private accommodation - we aim to open to the public everything we can. I am really glad you had a good time in Durham and looking forward to seeing you again!

Directly opposite Durham Cathedral. The courses are run by students (I think), and our guide, Joseph Jack, was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The castle is now part of Durham university/halls of residence and the tour lasts approximately 45 minutes. Your guide takes you through the grounds of the castle, up to the chapel, and then through to the Hogwarts style dining area, telling about the history of the place.
My review doesn't make it sound very interesting, but it is. And it's only £5.00.

We went on the tour, costing £5 and free to durham uni students. It was really informative and the castle itself has many stories. The medieval church was amazing and held much history. It was really interesting.

Highly recommend. It always helps having an expert with you. Nuggets of information or inferences from people who live the place makes the tour wonderfully informative. Laura, was great, from the flying staircase, chapel and great hall. The cathedral and castle are must see tours.

Well worth a visit and right next to the cathedral. we went on a guided tour as the students were there which I think actually made it better. What a place for the lucky uni students to eat lunch!
Our guide Jack was excellent, really interesting facts and tales put over in a way that a non history buff like myself could follow.
Tickets were only £5 so it’s fantastic value, and the tour lasted about 40 minutes, so perfect amount of time.
As a side note we picked up our tour lanyards from the library next door and they have loads of info, guides etc if you are looking for things to see and do in this lovely city-really helpful staff!

Highly recommend a visit but you need to leave a good amount of time to appreciate the wonderful cathedral. Our visit was enhanced by the contribution of Aidan who proved to be a wonderfully informative tour guide.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to review Durham Castle. The Castle is not only open to student residents, but to the public as well, through guided tours which happen daily (expect special events in the college prevent them from happening). I hope next time you will want to come along a guided tour and experience this beautiful building inside as well as outside. Best wishes,

Another excellent place if your in Durham a real palace although some areas are difficult for wheelchair users. Self guided or guided tours are available and the entrance price is sensible.

Good afternoon and thank you for your review of Durham Castle. We are sorry that you came over to find the castle closed - the castle prides itself to be the oldest college of Durham University since 1837, and this means that university ceremonies and events take place in it during the year. These closures, together with our regular schedule of guided tours, are indicated on our website. It is a shame that, since you mention you came to see the castle on purpose, you didn't think to check online before committing to such a long journey and ended up being disappointed. Best wishes,

As others have noted, cathedral is free - however if you want to see the special exhibitions you have to pay for that. Castle tour was booked at the tourist office nearby.
How did you book this tour?
